My topic is Sterilizations in Women’s prisons. I recorded this it feels like 100 different times. It was so many complications about what am I going to say, does it look like i’m reading off of a paper am I loud enough. This time I got it right. I am loud, confident kind of a fast moderate pace but it looks and sounds great. I look a little stiff but I have hand movements that make up fr the stiffness. To tell you the truth I don’t like watching myself I think I look and sound weird but it’s worth it because you see your mistakes when you look over a video of yourself and see what you need to do to improve.

About us

This is a youth-powered social network that was started in 2003 by a group of teachers from local sites of the National Writing Project.

We merged several earlier blogging projects. We have found that there are many advantages to bringing students together in one site that lives beyond any particular class. It's easier for individual students to read and write about their own passions, to connect with other students, comment on each other's work, and create multimedia posts for each other. Further, it's been exciting for us to pool our knowledge about curriculum, connected learning, and digital literacies.

If being part of such a community makes sense to you, we invite you to join us. We welcome all youth and any teacher interested in having students publish online and participate in the give and take of a social network like Youth Voices.
